You wake in an updated 1951 Poinsettia Heights home spanning 1,284 square feet with three bedrooms and two baths. Step outside for an early swim in your private pool. Situated just 2.5 miles from the beach and minutes from Downtown Fort Lauderdale, your day begins in quiet comfort.
Daily travel connects seamlessly to the surrounding city. Downtown Fort Lauderdale, Las Olas, Fort Lauderdale Beach, and the Brightline Fort Lauderdale Station are all about a four-minute drive away. When your schedule calls for travel north, Downtown Pompano Beach is about a ten-minute drive.
Evenings offer exceptional variety nearby. Explore the Las Olas Boulevard restaurant row, a walkable mile between downtown and the beach offering sidewalk tables, steakhouses, sushi, and Italian fare. Visit Anglin's Fishing Pier and beach village for casual seafood and pizza steps from the sand, or reserve a table at Casa D'Angelo Ristorante for Chef Angelo Elia's upscale Tuscan cuisine, handmade pasta, and white truffle dishes.
Art and performance are moments away. Spend quiet weekday mornings viewing modern and contemporary shows at NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale, located downtown just a block from Las Olas. Enjoy touring Broadway, symphony, and comedy at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts along the New River, with valet or Riverwalk garage parking. Between November and spring, browse the outdoor juried Las Olas Art Fair and seasonal street shows.
Fresh air is always within reach at Fort Lauderdale Beach and the A1A promenade, featuring two miles of lifeguarded sand, a wave wall, bike lanes, and hotel bars across the street. Hugh Taylor Birch State Park offers 180 acres of hammock, a kayak lagoon, and a tunnel under A1A to the beach. At Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park, enjoy quiet beaches, kayak rentals, and picnic pavilions.
Weekends offer diverse destinations to explore. Visit Colohatchee Park or play a round at Jungle Island Mini Golf & Fun Park. For indoor recreation, explore the air-conditioned make-and-play studios at Young At Art Museum, or spend hours at Xtreme Action Park with indoor go-karts, a roller rink, bowling, ropes course, and arcade.
